From Mag. Took to lunch yesserday knowing full well I mite be committing Engineericide. Tho still young it was still a pleasure to drink. Such a balanced piece of work. Will definately keep the remaining mags in the dark but will break out a 750 whilst what remains of me memory can compare. WW

opened the only bottle i've ever had of the montelena estate, an '01, a year ago. it was very primary and a big disappointment, but it was my own fault for opening a notoriously slow-aging wine from a tannic vintage at only eight years of age.

am glad the softer '02 proved to be rewarding drinking for you already, WW. i know you like your wines with a few whiskers on 'em. [img]/ubb/wink.gif[/img]

Taking another to lunch today with some dear friends at a post B/D party. Will report tomorrow. WW

Took the mag and a 750 to the club yesterday. Thot there was going to be 6 instead 2 of my friends flew back to Montana Sunday so 'twere just Cal and our lovely CBs. The girls decided they wanted bubbly so it was up to Cal and I to do the deed. After the first sniff. swirl, and taste we decided it was a blessing them dudes went home. Not quite DOTOIG but close enough that it done' matter none. Lovely juice, quaffed with lovely people, in a lovely setting made for a lovely day. WW

Fer goonies sake ENG!!!!!! We did a number on BOTH. The mag dint quite make it thru the cheese and pruschetta plate so the 750 we weaned thru the balance and our main courses. Seems like there was an inordantly large "Angels Share" as we hit the low 80s' yesterday. WW
